IBM said it operates โ€™the worldโ€™s largest’ fleet of quantum computer systems and will continue to design, build, and assemble quantum computers in America.

IBM announced plans on Monday to invest $150 billion in the United States over the next five years to expand its role as a global leader in computing.

The company said in a statement that the investment will include more than $30 billion for research and development to advance and continue IBMโ€™s American manufacturing of mainframe and quantum computers.

โ€œTechnology doesnโ€™t just build the futureโ€”it defines it,โ€ said Arvind Krishna, IBM chairman, president, and chief executive officer. โ€œWe have been focused on American jobs and manufacturing since our founding 114 years ago, and with this investment and manufacturing commitment, we are ensuring that IBM remains the epicenter of the worldโ€™s most advanced computing and AI capabilities.โ€

IBM said it operates โ€œthe worldโ€™s largestโ€ fleet of quantum computer systems and will continue to design, build, and assemble quantum computers in America.

The company defines quantum computing as the use of quantum mechanics to solve problems beyond the ability of even the most powerful classical computers, a technology it estimates will transform American competitiveness, jobs, and national security. IBMโ€™s Quantum Network provides access to nearly 300 Fortune 500 companies, academic institutions, national laboratories, and startups, with over 600,000 active users so far.

IBM competitors such as Google aim to release commercial applications in quantum computing in the next five years, while Nvidiaโ€™s CEO, Jensen Huang, predicts a 20-year wait for practical uses.

IBMโ€™s announcement follows similar investment pledges by tech companies such as Nvidia and Apple, which recently committed about $500 billion each to U.S. operations.

Several analysts view the new investments as efforts by tech companies to align with and respond to President Donald Trumpโ€™s push for the onshoring of manufacturing amid tariff policy changes.
